Mountain and Forest Kingdom

Lawrence said: "Well, I have extra meat here. You can take ten pounds of pork back with you when you go back today."

Emma quickly shook her head and said with some sadness: "Doug told us before we set off that we would not be allowed to come over to sell grain to you, nor could we exchange male slaves with you."

Lawrence didn't expect Doug to actually give the order.

Lawrence said: "It doesn't matter, you don't need to sell me anything. There is a grouse in my chicken coop. You just said you were lucky to catch it. You can just take the grouse with you when you go back."

Saryl is now getting more and more angry with Doug's family, "Kate has said bad things about me since I was a child, and Doug is also a bad person. There are no good people in their family, they are a bunch of annoying people."

Emma said quickly: "Doug has gone to the Valkyrie people now. Seventeen people have gone there in total. Kate has not gone. He is always at the Domu people and hasn't come back for a long time."

Lawrence got information about the village from Emma and roughly figured out the movements of Doug and others.

The chicken was killed soon, and the intestines and other things were intended to be fed to the crows, but the crows did not arrive.

Lawrence stood up and threw the chicken intestines in the bowl into the river outside the wall.

Emma saw this and shouted in shock: "You don't want to eat those? You can eat them!"

Lauren explained: "We feed the fish. We raise the fish in the river. We can eat these fish in winter, so it is not a waste."

Salil laughed when she saw Emma's anxious look, "We have no shortage of meat now. We eat meat every day. We didn't want to eat it for a long time. Now even the two dogs don't want to eat chicken intestines."

Emma stared at the two men with wide eyes.

And Sophia is collecting chicken feathers on the side.

Emma did not expect that this place would be so wealthy. Her family is now worried about the winter. She only hopes that her husband can bring food from outside to survive the winter.

But in this friend’s house on the mountain, there is too much meat to eat, and too much bread to eat!

At this time, Etty came over with two more chickens, and Salil took one chicken and was about to kill it.

Emma quickly asked: "How many chickens are you going to kill?"

Lawrence smiled and replied: "Kill six chickens. I want to eat chicken legs today, so kill more. We will have fried chicken for lunch!"

Emma was shocked again. In autumn, chickens are indeed killed to prepare for the winter, but eating six chickens at once?

Isn't this what you eat slowly?

Lawrence also saw Emma's exaggerated expression, and while finding it funny, he also understood it very well.

A year ago, when I wanted to eat a bite of fried chicken or drink a sip of sugar water, the cold reality told me that it was out of reach.

And now it’s done!

"Emma, ​​hurry up and eat, or you will be cold if you don't eat." Lawrence said seriously without laughing at Emma: "This is also my first time to eat fried chicken. This is not easy."

Emma nodded and quickly lowered her head to eat quickly.

There was meat and vegetables in the wooden bowl, and there was bread in his hand that smelled like meat.

After finishing the meal, Emma and Lawrence cut up the chicken together, while Salyl and Sophia turned on the stove and heated the oil pan.

Pull the solidified lard steak into a clean stone pot. The heated stone pot will quickly melt the pork and release a mouth-watering aroma.

Sariel stirred it a few times with a wooden spoon and quickly looked at Lawrence, "Lawrence, what are you going to do next?"

Lawrence cut off the chicken legs and put them in a basin, picked up the prepared eggs, cracked them, and put the egg whites in the prepared stone bowl.

"Add some egg white to the flour to make it taste better."

Salil asked: "What about the yellow ones?"

Lawrence thought for a moment, it seemed that these were useless.

"Let's make some soup. We'll be making pork bone soup outside at noon. Use the pork bone soup to make some egg soup."

Salil said happily: "It sounds very good, what do you think, Sophia?"

Sophia also looked forward to it, "I also think it will be delicious!"

Two of the three maids work outside, and only Navia, who is better at housework, learns cooking skills in the kitchen and does chores as a helper.

Emma, ​​who had just eaten, felt as if her mouth was drooling, and she became very hungry for food.

Lawrence coated the chicken legs with a layer of flour, and after the temperature in the oil pan was almost the same, he carefully lowered the chicken legs down gently.

Zila~

The fragrant smell of chicken echoed in the large kitchen and drifted outside through the open window.

The peasant women and maids who were working all smelled the special aroma of the master's house and cast envious eyes there.

Seravan, Reglo, and Mandekru also smelled the fragrant smell and became unmotivated from work.

This is normal. The two dogs that were tied at the gate of the manor were lying on the ground uncomfortably and looking at the wooden house, whimpering pitifully, hoping that kind people would help them untie the ropes and take them into the house.

The aroma floated into the air and into the distance.

There is an inconspicuous cave on Mount Talim, three kilometers away in a straight line.

A woman wearing simple cloth came out of the cave. She was over 1.8 meters tall, with strong arms and body, but she had obvious female features and looked like a giantess.

The woman's hair was knotted into strips like snakes, and her clothes were quite bold. The front of her body was simply covered with ropes and pieces of cloth, and the same was true for her lower body.

When the wind blows, the pieces of cloth that look like torn pieces of tattered clothes will blow up, revealing her dark gray wheat complexion.

"Luxury food is being made there again." The woman looked at the smoking hillside opposite, "How many years has it been? It seems like twenty years? Maybe longer."

"A person in this kind of place doesn't need to talk, doesn't need to study, doesn't need to worry about assassination and revenge, and no one will care about him even if he doesn't wear clothes every day."

"My clothes stopped being wearable more than ten years ago, and what I eat every day is unpalatable berries and dead meat."

The woman soon entered the cave again, and when she entered the cave, she saw the carvings on the cave stone.

"Khalan, my name."

Kharan did not go back to the cave, but went to sit on a stone where he could see the distance, smelling the thin aroma in the air.

"I remember there were two witches there."

Kehalan soon became hungry, so he took out the dried meat pieces from the cave, ate the sweet fruits on the mountain that were so ripe that they were almost rotten, smelling the meaty aroma in the air, and ate the rabbit meat that had no meaty taste.

She ate slowly because she had enough time.

There is no need to farm or raise livestock every day, and obtaining food is very simple. Except for the trouble in winter, most of the time I just walk around and sit like this day after day.

After sitting for more than two hours, Khalan found that the smell was much lighter, but he did not feel full.

At this time, Kharan noticed something coming out of the house over there.

Kehalan didn't take it seriously because he couldn't see the specific appearance due to the distance, but these little people often walked around there.

The little people quickly disappeared into the woods.

It soon appeared again, near the hillside, and was still approaching this way.

Briars and shrubs blocked their path, but they skirted it and continued along the barren slopes.

When the distance between the two sides was close to one thousand meters, Khalan saw the two men riding sheep.

At this time, it is still impossible to determine the specific gender, but it is slightly clearer than before.

The distance between the two sides is still very far, and the mountain where Kehalan is located is three hundred meters higher than where the two people are standing now.

Kehalan looked at the two people below curiously.

The two men raised their heads to look for something, but they didn't seem to see Khalan.

The visibility on the mountain was not high to begin with, and Kehalan's skin color was not obvious, making it difficult to spot her.

Lawrence said to Salil: "That's enough here. Let's keep our distance. You are thirty meters away from me. I will find a suitable place to put the food down, and then we will go back."

Salil disapproved of negotiating with the witch. No matter what she thought before, Salil now didn't want Lawrence to risk anything.

But Salil couldn't forcefully refuse Lawrence's decision.

"Be careful and don't get too close there. We'll go back when we're almost there. Sophia is still waiting for us."

"Okay." Lawrence agreed and continued riding the sheep towards the hillside.

As he advanced to the mountainside, Lawrence placed his lunch box on a rock and returned the same way.

Sariel breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Lawrence return, "Is everything okay?"

Lawrence said: "You go first, and I will follow behind. I will come closer to you when I feel that I am okay."

"Yeah." Sariel rode back on the sheep. After walking for a few seconds, she looked back. She smiled reassuringly when she saw Lawrence riding the sheep and following.

Lawrence looked at the grass around him, "Strange, I didn't see any dead beasts, and the plants around didn't look like they were poisoned."

Sariel smiled and said: "The area around Lathander is not filled with burning flames, and the area around Delenn is not filled with dirt."

Lawrence accepted the explanation and followed Saryl home.

After staying alone quietly for more than two hours to make sure there was nothing wrong, Lawrence finally felt a little more at ease.

Kehalan held the chicken legs and pork bone bread in the box with both hands and eagerly devoured them.
